Los Gatos: Groundbreaking for long-awaited building expected to happen soon

The Palo Alto Medical Foundation plans to build a 40,000-square-foot building at 15400 Los Gatos Blvd. at Gateway Drive. The former car lot has been vacant for several years, with nearby residents complaining it's a blight on Los Gatos Boulevard.

Responding to the criticism, property owner Sand Hill Properties said it couldn't build until an anchor tenant was found.

PAMF expects to break ground later this summer. When the building is finished it will be occupied by primary and urgent care physicians and provide diagnostic imaging, radiology and laboratory services.

PAMF is also opening a facility at 15720 Winchester Blvd. That 9,000-square-foot leased property is currently being renovated and will house specialty and primary care physicians, as well as radiology and ultrasound services. It's expected to be completed early next year.
